Kiki Ratings & Reviews
Bitch Media
rhienna renée guedry
With its frank, moving storytelling and determination to bear witness to deep social fissures, the film is destined to secure a position on top-ten lists of gaymous cinema.
IndieWire
Katie Walsh
There is a bit of audience longing for more dance, more fun, more of the excellent music by Qween Beat, more trash talk and lingo, but "Kiki" doesn't offer up the fun without the realities that these youth face.
Queer.Horror.Movies.
Joe Lipsett
Kiki features a cast of eloquent, engaging characters struggling against a broad range of socio, economic, and political obstacles, but the way that filmmaker Jordenö engages with the context and history of these issues lacks depth.
Mediaversity Reviews
Li Lai
You will be hard-pressed to find another film that celebrates gender and sexual expression the way KIKI does.
Denerstein Unleashed
Robert Denerstein
Skipping orientation and outside commentary, [Sara] Jordeno jumps into a scene that provides more than a place for highly stylized Vogue dancing and outre costumes. To those in it, it's also a home.
Refinery29
Sesali Bowen
If for no other reason, you should see Kiki to understand the complexity of subcultures in America and how they are extracted from consistently.
Anchorage Press
Indra Arriaga
For those of viewers who have never kikied, they should not miss this documentary; for those who have, Kiki offers a refreshing and melancholic look at how far we've come.
Metro
Matt Prigge
Its population is largely gay and trans people of color, who've found a large and rich support system amongst a scene first documented in 1990's Paris is Burning.

One thing Kiki does really well is show how these dance competitions are an organizational structure for kids who might otherwise slip through the cracks.

New York Times
Glenn Kenny
"Kiki" shows us a group of brave and beautiful souls for whom the struggle is, unfortunately, probably about to get even harder.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
[An] adroit documentary on the new generation of those in the ballroom and voguing scenes ...
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
When compared to the high-stakes dramas at the center of Paris Is Burning, where sex workers dreamed of becoming supermodels, Kiki feels rather tame.
The Atlantic
David Sims
It's an honest examination of the powers, and limits, of subcultures and small communities-and how quickly things can change for better or worse within them.
Film Journal International
David Noh
Not as much fun as you'd expect, but an honest, if heavy-spirited, take on today's house scene.
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
"Kiki" often casts a rueful gaze, but it's also exuberant and alive, and never despairing.
Variety
Peter Debruge
It explodes with energy, thanks in part to rattlesnake-taut dance tracks from MikeQ and ballroom DJ crew Qween Beat, but mostly from the Kiki kids themselves.
The Film Stage
Dan Schindel
Though the film is eager to delve deep with these various individuals, it's curiously disinterested in the one factor that unites them all.
The Playlist
Katie Walsh
'Kiki' highlights the rucial community and activism of the voguing ballroom scene.
The Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
With a simple eloquence that never gets preachy, it makes the point that the gay marriage movement was driven by the white middle class, while the marginalized transgender community remains largely unrepresented.
